Tensions are escalating between Real Madrid and the La Liga leadership. Following Javier Tebas's controversial remarks about criticism from Real Madrid TV, Dani Carvajal felt compelled to publicly respond on Instagram.

"Hello Mr. Javier Tebas. Failing to comply with the regulations is adulterating the competition," wrote the Spanish defender. "You can say whatever you want about the RMTV videos, but you cannot ignore that what I mentioned above amounts to breaking the rules. A stain will remain on your competition if the match is played... Good afternoon."

This powerful message comes in an increasingly heated atmosphere between the Madrid management and the La Liga president. Similarly, Thibaut Courtois did not hesitate to voice his discontent in a press conference ahead of the Champions League showdown against Juventus. "I don't know why people are surprised. I've never seen a league president speak like he does. They're trying to hide things. It's manipulation," he declared.

Real Madrid, publicly backed by several of its key players, has also filed an official appeal against the decision to move the match between Villarreal and FC Barcelona to Miami, an initiative blocked by La Liga but still at the heart of a fierce controversy.
